Artwork Infomation:

Ideally, the catalogue number should be on the back and spine of any printed sleeve and on the label.

Record labels must be clearly marked with A and B sides, otherwise we will NOT take responsibility for the wrong labels on the wrong sides.

If you are expecting your records to be exported to the USA, please ensure "Made In England" is on all printed parts. This is required by US customs and will greatly facilitate things for your distributor.

Please proof read all the artwork carefully. Curved Pressings will not be responsible for proof-reading.

Acceptable File Formats and Specifications:

Acceptable file formats are: tiff, eps, pdf and psd.

We accept both MAC and PC files.

Make sure you include all screen and printer fonts, logos, image files (eps/tiff) or other picture files and include any specific colour references.

All artwork should be formatted to be output to our specifications.

Colour Infomation:

Artwork should be in CMYK not RGB - apart from non 4-colour labels where Pantones are generally used. (If using Pantones make sure you specify the pantone references).
If your label artwork is set up in CMYK but your label is only one or two colours, unless you set it up and specify the pantone references it will be printed as -and more importantly you will be charged for- full (CMYK) colour making a simple label very expensive indeed!

It is worth bearing in mind that some slight alteration in label colour may occur during the label baking process which is beyond our control. Please note that when there is a high percentage of transparent white in a pantone the colour (above 50%) the change during baking can be quite drastic so it is better to check.

Sending us Artwork:

Please supply artwork by email or CDR.
